Rothamsted Manor, Grade I listed manor house in Harpenden Rural, England.
The manor house displays Dutch architectural elements throughout its structure, with substantial portions dating back to construction in the seventeenth century.
The first documented reference to Rothamsted appears in 1212 when Richard de Merston owned the lands, with records mentioning a house, chapel, and garden by 1221.
The manor house functions as a center for agricultural research and development through its connection to the Rothamsted Research Centre, advancing farming knowledge since 1843.
Located thirty minutes by train from London to Harpenden station and ten minutes from junction 9 of the M1 motorway, the manor welcomes visitors for events and tours.
The Wittewronge family, who fled religious persecution in Ghent, purchased the manor in 1623 and modified its architecture to incorporate Dutch design elements.
